Homegrown spinach tastes 10x better and it’s so easy to grow with 10 sq ft #spinach #garden #salad

This YouTube video (creator: Nicole Johnsey Burke) argues that commercially produced spinach is overgrown in large monoculture fields—claimed here as supplying 95% of US spinach—requiring heavy water, herbicides, and insecticides, then being mechanized, packaged, and trucked up to 2,400 km and sitting a week on store shelves. The speaker contrasts that with home gardening: only about ten square meters, a packet of seed, and gardeners can harvest homegrown spinach for roughly six months of the year (can sow months before spring and harvest first leaves within weeks). The video’s purpose is to persuade viewers that growing spinach at home is easy, fresher, and more rewarding.
